Because of its many social benefits we need to legalize Marijuana in the state of Nevada utilizing the political process. So what is the reason Marijuana has not become legal in Nevada yet? Why has it become such a struggle on trying to make it legal? If it really has no effects then why not legalize? Here are some cons on why Marijuana should not be legalized in the state of Nevada. Reasons on why Marijuana has not become legal in this state is because many people think that child use will increase and there will be a lot more marijuana related deaths, Such as car accidents and to be a gateway drug as said on the article of pros and cons of Legalizing marijuana on an educational site. Nevada is one of the few states that has the least amount of teenagers dying in car accidents. Legalizing this drug can lead to more teen use and can possibly cause more car crashes among youth. Car accidents while high on this drug can be very fatal and dangerous just like driving while intoxicated. Those are some cons on why Marijuana should not be legalized in the state on Nevada. Pros on why Marijuana should be legalized in the State of Nevada. Marijuana should be legalized because marijuana has no harmful effect as said on the pros of marijuana. Study shows that there has not been a person who has died of a marijuana overdose. The only thing wrong with Marijuana is that it contains THC is a chemical compound found in the Cannabis plant. In other words THC is the “high” that you feel, a lot of people experience a euphoria state in which they feel good and relaxed for a certain amount of time. Study has shown that marijuana has never been tested on animals which impact a lot of animal lovers which is said in the PETA article. Me myself being an animal lover I believe that it’s a good thing that it has not been tested on animals. I simply think that nothing should be tested on animals and rather be tested on human beings. Unlike cigarettes and tobacco itself that shows it has been tested on animals. It truly isn’t right that tobacco companies test their product on dogs, monkeys and, etc. I believe that Marijuana should not be classified as a drug but a natural herb. Drugs are manmade out of harsh chemicals that can affect the human body. Cigarettes should be classified as drugs not marijuana since the substances in a cigarette are artificially made and Marijuana is not it is just a plant. I understand that Marijuana can be a hassle to grow and children should not be exposed to the strong smell of the plant. But children should not be exposed to cigarette smoke because they can become second hand smokers and that can result into deadly medical issues. Marijuana is an herb that is shown to relieve the side effects of cancer. This herb can treat cancer! Why not legalize it then! There are medical marijuana facilities for cancer patients. There also are facilities where people can sign up to receive a Medical Marijuana Card, but it is not easy to receive. You must go through a few doctor appointments in order to receive the card. With the medical card you can receive the substance from any facility and whenever you are pulled over with the substance with you, you must have the card present so you will not get arrested for possession. You must be the age of 18 to register for a medical marijuana card. I believe that Marijuana will be legalized in Nevada. If I had one wish I would want cigarettes and any other kind of tobacco product to be abandoned from all around the world if I had the power. Smoking cigarettes is like playing years of Russian roulette. You’re just waiting for the gun to go off and before you know it you’re gone. Why take that chance cigarettes are just a waste, I mean what do you really get out of smoking them? You’re just wasting away every puff you take. There are many pros and cons of marijuana but those are the main ones as I have read from the //Pros & Cons of Legalizing Marijuana//. The cons are on why marijuana should stay illegal. I’m not saying that everybody should smoke Marijuana but I know people just want it to be legal already, just legalize it I’m sure it would stop a lot of feuds going on in the U.S. The population in California increased ever since the legalization of this herb. We all know that California is one of the most populated states. If it was legalized anywhere else some people would stop living in that state. Once marijuana is legalized in Nevada other states would start to make the same decision. Let’s all legalize so people would keep quiet about it already. The way things are today on the fight of legalization there are a lot of people with it. Marijuana can cure the sick cigarettes cause people to get sick. I know some of the legal issues on trying to legalize this substance would probably cause people in jail to be released if they had the possession of this drug and would probably cause the state to legalize cannabis related things as said on //Balanced Politics of Legalizing//. But look on the bright side there would be fewer criminals and maybe more work opportunities especially in this recession. Scientist could maybe find marijuana useful and figure out different ways to use it. Marijuana can’t always have negative connotations towards it. Those were the pros and cons, well mainly the pros on legalizing marijuana in the state of Nevada. I hope this information was useful and will keep all who have read this thinking. I’m sure a lot of people would be happier if this substance became legal. Some would be unhappy about it but I don’t think it should bother them. Anything is possible it’s up to you to make it happen.
